Chapter 10 the Battle
James darted off towards the gates where they last saw the Cyclopes army. He guessed it could be a little easier than before, considering that the Ork army had been wiped out. Soon after he had been proved wrong yet again. There before James and his 200 man crew with him, were over 500 Cyclopes’’ waiting in an orderly fashioned line for James and his crew to strike. James stood there, thinking everything over, from how much ammunition they could use, to how he will stab the Cyclopes’ eye.
He tried to send some kind of reassurance to his army, “Men, as you all see, there are many out there to battle, today we fight, we fight not only for our freedom, but for our kingdoms freedom, your families freedom, and the freedom every single one of us disserve.” He was definitely sending a strong message to the army now, “ We have 2 choices men, we can either fight to our death with every stroke of our sword and firing of our gun, or we could run, as cowards, and give up the freedom we deserve, so what do you say men, is it freedom or fate?”
The whole army shouted out as if they were all one voice, “FREEDOM, FREEDOM, and FREEDOM!!!”
The chant was heard from the Cyclopes army and they became confused. At that moment, the fearless group led by James raced towards the Cyclopes’. The Cyclops' did not know what to do, for they seemed to be over powered, but yet not over numbered. As the Cyclops’ noticed this they proceeded in booking it toward the Army. Both the Army’s running toward each other, when they got closer they came to a complete stop not but 50 yards from each other. Both Commanders for both armies gave the order to attack and off the battle went.
James went slowly to the outside of the battle where he could look over all of the war. His intensions were to find the Cyclops leader, tear him apart, take the eye and go home. This was not how it was going to go. James looked over everyone and saw no sign of the Cyclops king. He then ran back into battle field and saw Spencer in mid-air with a dark blue, big, hand around his neck. You could tell Spencer was defenseless. James sprinted over to his brother and grabbed a nearby spear and threw it right threw the Cyclopes’ ear and it came directly out the other. Blood squirted everywhere, all on Spencer and nearby battlers. James walked up to his brother and grabbed his hand. He pulled him up and they gave each other a nod and then went their separate ways. James was running around the battlefield in search for Wesley, for his sister was worried for him. After a long 30 minute search he found him. There was Wesley, laying on the dirt, rocky, ground. Motionless. It flushed happiness out of James. What was he going to tell Lucy, Her brother was killed in the war? Then at that moment, Wesley took a big gulp of air, opened his eyes and looked around. His hand was holding his ribs, where a Cyclops had bitten part of his flesh out. It was about an inch deep and surrounded with black and blue marks. He needed treatment right away. James flew him over his shoulder and ran out of the coliseum. As he reached the gate to exit, 3 orks surrounded him and Wesley. James didn’t know what to do, the Or’s had surrounded the 2 and were now circling them as if they were a bird, watching their pray. Right then one Ork charged at James. James threw Wesley to the side dodged the first Ork but then was blindsided with a vicious blow from a fellow Ork to the ribs. James was on his knees on the ground, fighting for air. At that moment, James realized that he had a pistol in his back pocket holder. James quickly pulled it out and let out the round on all three of the Or’s, and just as each bullet hit each Ork, they all fell down with a loud thug against the ground. James then hurried over to Wesley, for he was getting worse, you could tell by the color of his skin and the loss of consciousness he had from the time leaving the battlefield ‘til now. James yet again threw Wesley over his shoulder and ran to the Underground city. As he entered the city there was already a doctor at hand ready to take Wesley.
“What happened and when did this incident occur?” questioned the Doctor
James replied with no hesitation, “In the war zone, I don’t know, I just found him on the ground, motionless, and unconscious, and then he became conscious and I brought him here.”
“Thank you,” the doctor said as he hurried Wesley back to a room. As James was leaving the town he ran into Lucy. Oh man was James ready for this one.
Lucy was in tears, “oh my god, my Wesley, is he ok? will he be fine? we all need him!”
“Don’t worry, it’s only a flesh wound, it will be treated, he is in treatment right now actually. So please don’t worry, don’t put more stress on all of us.”
Lucy gave no more words but just sat there, crying.
James then raced back to the battlefield where he was greeted by Vaughn. “We are doing well, killed 300 plus right now and have only lost 2. Should we send the second bank of men sir?” questioned Vaughn.
“No hold back on the men, there is no point to put more men in danger when we don’t need to.
James then noticed he should have called the second group of men. He went into the battle field and was astounded to see the Cyclopes had over a thousand men and they had surrounded everyone. The dwarfs were fatigue and could barely stand, let alone hold a sword, while the ‘Hidden Army’ was still up and ready with ammunition at hand. James could not believe the numbers they had on us. Then all of a sudden they heard a scream. It said, “Fire the blocks!”
At that moment, a big cloud of black blocks were flying through the air, heading straight for the army. The army was flabbergasted. They had no idea what to do. James called an order to kneel down and put your shields facing the sky. Everyone proceeded in doing so and each one of the blocks bounced off each shield and blew up. Inside each block were thousands of bee-bees. A couple hit James and he stumbled over. He then stood up, alarmed now, and told his men to re assemble their battle line. This gave James, Spencer, Vaughn, and Victor time to think what they wanted to do. When the line was assembled, James gave the order to gather for reinforcements. 10 minutes later, sure enough, there were 700 more men ready for battle. They bombarded the Cyclopes’ and took them out one by one. James came up behind one of the blue, ugly things and sliced their head off with his sword. Spencer was going on a rampage with his pistol shooting every single one in his path. When the dust cleared up, there lied 2 more of our men dead along with 1000 plus Cyclopes’ dead. This sent a shock to the other Cyclopes, hiding, waiting for an order. No one still has seen the Cyclops king. Then, all of a sudden, a huge 15 foot blue, muscular, and skinny Cyclopes came out of one of the four castles surrounding the arena. He was at the highest point to be seen in the area. He gave a loud roar that sent shocks through everyone’s body. Then all of a sudden, 100 Cyclopes’ came out of one castle and stormed the area. They were by far the biggest Cyclopes’ they have fought yet. James, along with everyone else hesitated to charge, but then A big yell from James to order a charge was heard. Everyone, as fatigue as they were, ran towards the group. Spencer shot a bullet at one, it did not face the animal, a second shot was fired at it, it stumbled a little, a 3rd, it was only a few feet from Spencer, a fourth and final shot brought the monstrous animal to the ground. Along with all the Cyclopes were 2 headed dogs for each person. On the bright side though, those dogs were small, and easy to kill. They were used mostly for distraction.
While the war was going on the Cyclops king was in his castle planning over what was going to happen.
“God damnit, every one of our men from the first 2 wings were killed. How is this happening? We have had this kingdom for over 4 years and no one has challenged us. Then, with no warning, this! I just can’t believe it. If this wing doesn’t work we will have to use it!”
“Sir, with all due respect, I still don’t think we have reached that point yet! Do you know the damage it causes?” one of the Kings servants exclaimed.
“At this rate, we will most likely have to prepare it at least. I will keep it with me at all times. That way I know no one can have control of it.”
“you sure?” questioned the servant, who you could tell was the least bit excited for this
“Yes I am, bring the five ringed lightning sword!”
The sword was told to have been used by every Cyclopes King known. It has been used in every Historical changing war. The sword can bring death to any who touch it. And now it is in the hands of the King.
James and his army had just gotten done killing the final Cyclopes. They cheered and cheered. But then the gates all shut. James and his army scattered and try to find a way out. No. They are all trapped in their. A dark cloud was hovering over them. No it was a huge group of arrows. It was a second Arial attempt. James gave the same order to kneel down and lower your shields to face up. This time it didn’t work. The arrows pierced the shields and somehow blew each shield to smithereens. Now the men were stuck inside the Battlefield with no shields and low ammunition. James and everyone had to act fast, or their life’s could be taken.
